Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide

Jade is also known as the father of fomicry, for creating it. It happened when his sister, Nephry, broke her favorite doll. Instead of buying a new one, Jade (then known as Jade Balfour) just made a replica of it (he was nine years old at the time).

At the time, he was, as Nephry described him, a "devil". He didn't understand the signifigance of life, and enjoyed killing harmless monsters. He was also adept at fonic artes, using spells even adults found difficult.

His behavior was changed by his teacher, Nebilim. She was a healer, and therefore, able to use the seventh fonon - something Jade could not do. He respected her for it. Eventually, he tried using the seventh fonon, but instead unleashed an arte he couldn't control, and it hit Nebilim.

As she was dying, he created a replica of her. Instead of the desired result - a resurected Nebilim, he ended up creating a monster. -- Afterwards, Jade's talents in fonic artes and fomicry were recognized, and he was adopted by the Curtiss family. He eventually quit replicating things due to his best friend, Emporer Peony.

Dist (known during Jade's childhood as Saphir Gneiss, and was one of Nebilim's students), however, still didn't accept Nebilim's death. His dream was to see Jade return to normal, and help him ressurect her again. However, Jade had always refused, and often opted to make fun of Dist instead.

He introduces himself as, "Colonel Jade Curtiss, Third Division, Malkuth Imperial Forces." He doesn't ever name himself as Jade the Necromancer, but acknowledges the truth when others (like Largo, aboard the Tartarus) call him the Necromancer.

Near the beginning of the game, Guy is hit by Sync's "Cursed Slot" and, a while later, loses control and attacks Luke. Later, Ion explains that a Cursed Slot does not control its victim. Instead, it allows them to lose their inhibitions and act on subconscious feelings. Luke later realizes that this means that, deep down, part of Guy did want to kill him.

It's soon revealed that his anger is actually directed at Asch, the "original" Luke, for being the son of Duke Fabre. Guy is actually of nobility; his real name is revealed to be "Gailardia Galan Gardios". Duke Fabre invaded the Gardios house one night years ago and killed his family. All the women of the house, including his sister, rushed to save the young Guy, but they were slaughtered before his eyes. He awoke to find himself buried in their corpses, triggering his gynophobia. He then infiltrates House Fabre as a servant and vows to himself to hurt the Duke like the Duke had hurt him. However, Guy's friendship with Luke changed his mind and he rejected his ideas for revenge, although he admits to still having some suppressed rage regarding the issue.

Guy is kind and hard-working. He always saves those in trouble - regardless of gender. Once, he even saved Anise from falling off a cliff during an earthquake. He also can't say "no". He's often told by Emperor Peony to walk his rappigs (something Guy can't refuse anyways). Princess Natalia once ordered him to carry something in the Tower of Rem, even after he was no longer a servant to her family - an order he followed despite that. Jade also tells Guy to explain many things to people, and judging by the screen fading to black, he does what Jade told him to do.

LOL! Jade's sarcasm and obnoxiouness (as what luke says) made me like his character so much! "I, who stand in the full light of the heavens command thee, who opens the gates of hell, come forth divine lightning, THIS ENDS NOW! INDIGNATION!!! (Lol its storming here...)
